 |
|
Another pension refund question.
I�m certain I read before I left Korea (after fulfilling my contract) that I could apply form another country as long as it done in 18 months.
But now these threads escape me.
I�m in Costa Rica and hoping to do this online.
Anyone? |

It's on on here including the downloadable forms that you can submit from overseas.

Okay, so I got the forms downloaded, but nowhere do I find an address to send them off to.
I swear I have scanned that site and those forms like a menu, but can�t find a mailing address to save my ass.
One more time for the stoned monkey in Central America? |

Okay, now i had a smart person look over this paperwork and she can't find anywhere it indicates where it's to be sent.
Someone throw me a bone? |

| When you're back home, just send it to the Korean embassy. |

If the Korean emabassy/your attorney have no idea where to send the stuff, I would say that the national office here would be best...the address is at the bottom of the homepage:

I'm a sort-of runaway, so I won't be going home anytime soon. But the Korean Embassy is not far from my office here in San Jose, CR. I actually work in the same building as the Japanese embassy and I know it's not far from there from what I've heard.
So, that's what I'll do.
I haven't read all the other posts yet...this one just made the most sense so far. So now I can get back to my grilling activities with fresh pescado e langustas in wait.
Thank you all your support. |

Edit: I just got yelled at (sort of) for posting that pic...it's not here anymore dear...see |
